High School Graduation Rates

Ever wonder where your state stands in its efforts at graduation high school students? Here's a table that shows Public School Graduation Rates in the US in 2000.

It's really a pathetic showing. I honestly didn't realize it was this bad in some areas. In my state of TN 6 of 10 high school students graduate. And there are some states that are worse.

That's really scary considering how it limits future opportunities for so many kids. And Lord help you if you're a non-Asian minority.
